Just wanted to say hi

I bought a used bravo a couple of weeks ago
What a blast!
Except for some wind surfing, it's my first time sailing

Me and my seven year old got it to Mission Bay and I dragged it down the water.
I got it rigged in just a minute or two... talk about easy!

Then we looked it for a few minutes sitting half way in the water... sail flapping in the wind, not having a clue what to do next,

finally my lil kid said C'mon dad let's just get in the damn boat... we'll figure it out!

Talk about intuitive, we just sailed it all over the bay, no problems at all

I read here that you must have a "full size fleet side truck" to haul it
Well.. Here's a pic of it on our Toyota Tacoma
it looks funny but it just wedges itself right in there, couple straps and you are on the way!

Thanks for having a forum for these boats!
